What is the name of Prada's sportswear line with a red stripe?

Prada’s sportswear line with the distinctive red stripe is called Linea Rossa. The Italian name means “red line,” referring to the signature mark that identifies the collection.

Prada launched Linea Rossa in 1997 as a sportswear range rooted in the brand’s interest in industrial materials, technical construction and functional design. The collection brought Prada’s minimalist luxury language into clothing, footwear and accessories intended for active use rather than formal dressing.

The red stripe became the line’s visual shorthand. It can appear on garments, shoes, bags and other pieces, sometimes as a narrow flash or as part of a red Prada emblem. Its purpose is more than decoration: it signals the technical, performance-oriented side of the Prada universe.

Prada relaunched the line in 2018, emphasizing advanced textiles, streamlined silhouettes and activities such as skiing and snowboarding. A common confusion is “Prada Sport,” the name associated with the earlier sportswear identity. Linea Rossa is the canonical name used for the red-stripe line, while Linea Sport, Linea Blu and Linea Verde are not the answer to this question.
